[meteorite-list] Asian falls

[Jeff Grossman]

List,

I've been maintaining the Wikipedia page on meteorites fall statistics 
for a number of years:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorite_fall_statistics

On this page is a table showing the number of falls by continent, 
divided into 20-year intervals.  We are now halfway through the 
2001-2020 interval, and fall rates in most places are about what you'd 
expect based on the previous 40 years.  However, Asian falls are way 
down... there have been 13 published in MetBull for the last 10 years, 
around half the number you might expect.  Anybody care to speculate why 
this is?
